ARC Review: Dreaming Of A Cowboy Christmas by Ann Einerson

 

Rating: 3.5 Stars

Thank you to Luna Literary for an ARC of this novella.

I went into this wanting a sweet Christmas romance and this book delivered! Sunshiny Noelle winds up on the porch of Grumpy cowboy Shep days before Christmas after being scammed by a phony cabin rental and a blizzard leaves her with nowhere else to go.

 

I love the idea of not knowing what is missing from your life until you find it and that is exactly what happened between the two characters of this novella. I loved Noelle feeling at home in his cabin and around his farm animals. I loved Shep coming out of his shell after spending years being antisocial. The two of them really brought out the best in each other. I saw this described as a Hallmark movie with spice and that is the best way to describe it - it has the cozy lightheartedness of a Hallmark movie while delivering blush worthy smut. 

Synopsis:

A grumpy cowboy with a permanent scowl isn't quite what I had on my holiday wish list this year.

Except we don't always get what we wish for, which I quickly learn when I find out the Christmas vacation home I booked is a scam. Which means I need to get off the surly silver fox’s property ASAP.

But even a grumpy cowboy has manners, and he isn’t about to send this city girl away with a snowstorm blowing through town–even if it would make his life less complicated.

Another not-so-small problem? There's only one bed in his cabin.

I might be used to bright city lights, but country evenings turn into the perfect holiday nights when I find myself wrapped up in his arms. It seems the crackling fire isn't the only thing heating up, and I can’t help but wonder if fate led me here after all.
